Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
The Bears let Higgins fall into their laps, and walked away with a B+.

You could see the war room lean forward. Jay Higgins at pick 234 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. Every board in the league had Sanders lower, and that gap is the story.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In the 14th pick they get a run-stuffing presence up front. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick39 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
They paid sticker price for Tyler Booker in slot 39, and that is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick51 Rnd2 Kaleb Johnson
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Kaleb Johnson in the 51st overall pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick54 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge in the Round 2 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick72 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson in pick No. 72 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It fills a real need, too.
Pick87 Rnd3 Malachi Moore
They took Malachi Moore at par in No. 87, which is nothing to complain about. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick121 Rnd4 Jake Majors
Nice patience on Jake Majors, who had no business lasting to Round 4, Pick 20. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick149 Rnd5 Jack Nelson
Value said wait; Jack Nelson in pick 149 says they were not listening. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick197 Rnd6 Simeon Barrow Jr.
Circle this one: Simeon Barrow Jr. at the 197th pick is a fall that decides a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick234 Rnd7 Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins at pick No. 234 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick235 Rnd7 Antwane Wells Jr.
The board fumbled Antwane Wells Jr. all the way to slot 235, and they scooped it up. The roster fit checks out.
Pick236 Rnd7 Brandon Adams
The board had cheaper options than Brandon Adams at the 236th overall pick, and it noticed. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick242 Rnd7 Shilo Sanders
Shilo Sanders at the Round 7 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
